The point was about where is the data hosted.

The answer is that it's distributed, so you would need court orders in an insane amount of countries to get any decrypted data from telegram

This is hilariously out of touch. If the telegram team is based out of UAE, then the UAE government can easily force them to hand over data even if it’s stored on foreign servers.
